Is it a blanket watering restrictions on your region, or just lawn watering? Some areas only limit watering lawns, crops are fine.
Maybe consider a rain barrel too? Hook it into the system to water during restrictions.
Im moving this summer and only growing a single basil plant, so I'm living vicariously through you to plan my garden in the fall!
So the city actually has great Resources and I love it. To answer the question, yes and no… using sprinkler is a blanket no, doing it by hand is fine.
I actually just installed 2 rain barrels! Will need a pump to use with the soaker, but the City recommends (again great for resources I find) and I’ve seen comments here and elsewhere to not use on food. So I’ll hand water flowers with them.
Haha that’s unfortunate, but moving to place with a decent yard/garden atleast!? I’m trying to post frequently without spamming or being annoying.
Those are some great resources.
I'm moving to Kingston, ON. The place has a big yard, and my goal is to have no yard.
It's part of Frontenac Arch biosphere, so I get access to four botanical regions for native species to pick!
